Philly. Fucc a Eagle. I mean dat.
They have talent but one of those guys needs to establish themselves as a potential top 20 player, the Sixers and Nuggets have that already.


Ingram has the highest ceiling of that core.

Zo
Kuzma
Randle
Ingram

All under 24 and can be all stars.

Minnesota young talent been hyped but they didn't start winning till Jimmy Butler got there and they been together three years.

This is the Lakers first year together and they won 27 games out of 61. After having a 9 game losing streak earlier in year.

Phoenix
Sac
Milwaukee
Boston
Is not as good or driven by veteran stars.

If a team got more talent especially younger talent let me know.
Payton 23
Booker 21
Jackson 20
Bender 20
Ayton 19

You made a thread about team with best young core and didn't include arguably the team with the best young core....:dahell:

I just listened to the Dunc'd on podcast on this topic this morning and they ranked LA 5th
I think Philly was #1. Embiid has a legit chance to be 1st team all NBA AND DPOY in his FIRST FULL SEASON, Simmons will be in the "discussion" for an All NBA slot as a rookie and is pretty much a lock to be a perennial allstar going forward with Embiid. Fultz, Saric, and McConnell are all playoff team rotation level players worse case and all under 25. Covington is a prototypical 3 and D guy if he ever get his shoot back

Philly got two guys.

The lakers got 4 players that can make a all star team.

Philly embid ceiling highest of all players.

Zo and ingram ceiling as high as simmons.

Kuzma and randle ceiling higher than mcconnel saric covington.

Fultz is a wildcard.
